Spent hours cleaning my office so I could find my new Internet accounts and passwords since I have not been able to Blog. Couldn't remember what it was, and couldn't find the slip of paper that had my user name and password jotted down. Any hints on how to stay organized? Finally found it on a sticky yellow pad below my screen. Since I've just started exploring ebooks for my writing, I've found there are many, many sites that can be part of the publishing and marketing process. Previously, my writing was published the old fashion way and the PR carried out the old fashioned way, attending meetings, conferences, conducting workshops, then handing out cards and giving info on the newly published book or anthology. Now, I'm scrambling to get organized for this new way to proceed. Sticky notes are not the answer. Back to cleaning. Back to organizing.

About Me

Wrote The Desert Eternal, Legend of Brook Hollow, Cowboys & Wild, Wild Things. These books are illustrated with my husband Bob's photography. New books this year are Powerball 33 and Lincoln & the Gettysburg Address, about 3 days in his life and our country.

New cozy mystery coming out May 1, 2015 THE EROTICA BOOK CLUB FOR NICE LADIES. It's about a librarian with her own bookmobile who arrives in a small California town and is asked to start a secret book club by 2 women curious about erotica. The librarian who loves classic literature starts them off reading Emily Dickinson, Jane Austen, Elizabeth Barrett Browning. The mystery concerns a stolen, ancient book of herbal cures and how the book club ladies get entangled in the serious crime wave that washes over the town.
